"The Deer Tracks have raised the bar. "Aurora" is one of the great albums of 2008." 9 out of 10 / It'sATrap.com
"David Lehnberg and Elin Lindfors rise above any sort of cliché on the stunning "Yes This Is My Broken Shield", which twinkles before bursting into a glorious geyser of sound." 8/10 NME
"To heighten this sense of eerie prettiness Deer Tracks combine folk-ishly delicate melodies with glitch techno techniques: twinkling keyboard lines that sound as though they're being played on toy instruments (as per that other micro-genre, toytronica) are frequently interrupted by static and hiss, crackles and jumps." Guardian
"It..s apparent that 'Aurora', in all it's spectral majesty, could really be one of the most understated and wholesomely beautiful records of 2009. 8 out of 10 Clash Magazine
"These are beautiful and ethereal songs that are epic in both scope and, occasionally, length." 4 out of 5. The Fly
"Aurora sounds, astonishing and unique. It’s an album that manages to sound ethereal but human, complicated but simple and happy but sad all at the same time, a walking mix of contrast that not only delivers, but does so with stunning effect. " 9 out of 10 The Music Fix
"Their ghostly boy-girl vocals and blissful, dream-pop arrangement create a haunting landscape, while the sense of something sinister lurking underneath" 8 out of 10 AOL Music
"The album has been spinning in the CMU office so much that we're slightly worried that the laser might burn through the CD." CMU-Music Network
"Fits perfectly to sit and cry to while you are looking at the leftovers of your relationship in an ashtray" Nöjesguiden
"Aurora is an album that deserves enormous attention" 4 out of 5 / Västerbottens Folkblad
"Yes! Fantastic!" 4 out of 5 / Arbetarbladet
"This could be the album of this autumn" Zero Magazine
"Brilliant and heartwarming" 8 out of 10 / Dagensskiva.com
"The music is just so amazingly beautiful" 5 out of 6 / Gefle Dagblad
"The track "Yes this is my broken shield" is among the best tunes that I have ever heard...." GöteborgsPosten
"Soundscapes that are impossible to not be obsessed by. Like a fusion of Mew and The Postal Service..." 4 out of 5 / Helsingborgs Dagblad
"The Deer Tracks are actually at their best when their sound builds to something overbearing, if not crushing." 7/10 PopMatters
"Aurora is fabulous and touches ground somewhere between Múm and a more melodic Khonnor" 4 out of 5 / Sydsvenskan
"It is majestic and considerate at the same time. A combination that is not so easy to get to but it works just as it should."
Groove
"Get this as fast as you can, - it will be a wonderful companion to the darker months to come." Eardrums Music
"It is beautiful, it is charmingly, it is playful and becomes almost epic and majestic when the songs are blossoming out." Meadow Music
"It's not that often that we find something as good as this." Letters Have No Arms!
"If you were to mix M83 with Mum, I imagine the sound would be very similar to The Deer Tracks. Beautiful toy-tronica meets shoegaze sound of a netherworld"
Audio Drums
"Today I have discovered what I consider to be the most perfect blend of sounds to have graced the many ears on this earth in years." Uh Oh Disco!
Every story always has a start.
But when all of this began is not entirely known, probably a series of events leading to all this and made this story possible to be written at all. If it’s faith or just luck, only time will tell.
But I'll go with faith.
The Deer Tracks is David Lehnberg & Elin Lindfors, both children of the Swedish town of Gävle. Despite their earlier success with respective projects (Leiah, Ariel Kill Him & Twiggy Frostbite), all roads led them into this electromagnetic mist of melodies. And so, around the shift of 06/07, they met to shape electro landscapes just as sparkling as the rime that sheeted the long and hard winter nights.
Now streaming from this coalition is the tender sadness of the north, coated in its northern lights. Electrifying vibrations meets a gentle forest, where tracks of magic leaves shaped patterns.
The castaway’s last hope, a message in a bottle drifting against the stream.
Absolut! :) Gillar Christmas Fire =) Antar efter vad jag har hört att vår musik inte är vad ni sätter igång på spelningslistan det första ni gör, men droppa gärna en kommentar om musiken iallafall? :)
thanx you too i know David's work since Leiah comes to play in Rome and i like the sound of this new project too. Anyway, i hope new AKH work, comes out soon! bye
Hej Hoppas allt är bra och kreativiteten flödar :-) Det var ett tag sedan jag såg er för första gången på kafé Stanna i Göteborg, vilken fantastisk upplevelse! Har ni nåt nytt på gång? Mitt album som jag jobbat med i över två år finns äntligen på Spotify http://open.spotify.com/album/5Eoho5p6bn4HrLa9JcKa4H känns askul, nä nu ska jag återgå till lyssnandet på Aurora på spottan. Må bäst!
